I didn't know you had a YouTube Jason! Thanks for sharing.

Really nice guitar with TV Jones pickups and gold back. Would prefer to keep it but have too many.

I don't like to call guitars mint, but this is pretty much mint.



$1900 Shipped and insured. Cheaper for local pickup in DC area.

The error message is from IIS which is Windows only. What does that mean? I see that error message on Safari. I am trying now with Firefox, but it can't find it at all. Brett knows way more about this stuff than me, but what he means is the web server they're hosting the site on is a Windows based ...

Played one unplugged last weekend and really liked the feel of the neck. Aesthetically I prefer the look of the 21 fret neck on the 12 string, but would not say the same about the six, possibly because I am so used to my 6 string at 24. Also played a 480XC for the first time and was pleasantly surpr...

Some of the SPCs and other limited runs had ebony as well:

Agreed, hard to tell, but think the fretboard looks unfinished.

Anyone around here pick one of these up and want to report out/give a review?

I'd be most curious about the size and feel of this neck. I loved the very flat and thin neck on an original 480.

Thank you for clarifying jdog. When you said there were deals to be HAD you kind of implied a limited supply from dealers at a certain price. If the process is simply to call all the dealers and find the best price then that is what it is I guess, but I'm not expecting massive swings, but perhaps I'...

There were deals to be had... just had to shop around. What are you referring to exactly? Should I have called every dealer I could find and compared prices before they sold out of their pre-order allotment? Genuinely curious. Is this the way to shop for Rics these days and I've been doing it wrong?

The prices seem a bit exorbitant on these at $4800 (nice coincidence) and $5150, but maybe it's just me. I know some will point to Gibson Custom and PRS prices to try and justify it, but as more major brands trend this way I'm inclined to look more at boutique builds or vintage guitars for these kin...

I was a lurker for almost two years and then joined in 2005, while still in high school. I was very active checking the site those days in the mid 2000s and really enjoyed everyone's active dialogue and getting to know the different personalities on the site. In 2008, while in college I went to Aust...

I am partial to Montezuma Brown.

When I had a 620 MID you could see it if you angled it a certain way in the light.

Selling another Gretsch:

Looking for $1900 shipped in the US. Not many of these out on the used market yet. This one is like new. Think I have too many semi-hollows right now.

Thanks!
